Watch: Molina does pushups after brushback

Yadier Molina took a unique, health-conscious approach to being brushed back on Monday.
After Philadelphia Phillies left-hander Brett Oberholtzer lost control of a 89-mph fastball, nearly hitting Molina in his lower half, the veteran catcher fell to the ground and got in a quick workout, inciting quite the reaction from the crowd.
The extra reps must have helped: Molina hit a single on the very next pitch.
